Important notice:
Opioid receptor blockade with oral Naltrexone is meaningful only if used responsibly, regularly and without flaws. It is necessary to take Naltrexone tablets daily. This is easy when one’s mood is stable and there is a high motivation for a clean life. Naltrexone therapy may become a serious problem when there are mood swings, when one suffers with insomnia, anxiety, depression. Or when one is reminded of the past thanks to old friends - the addicts and dealers. A patient is forced to choose every day: Naltrexone pill or drugs - and this is often a very difficult decision. Relapse in heroin (opiate) addiction can happen when a person forgets to take the blocker tablet, or does not bring enough Naltrexone pills when traveling, or is not able to buy the pills in time, etc...
